推广COVID-19疫苗接种的政治和公共卫生领导人应确定推动疫苗接种决策的最相关标准。社交媒体越来越多地被用作疫苗接种数据的来源，并作为增加疫苗接种的有力沟通工具。于2020年12月，我们进行了一项基于社交媒体的跨部门调查，以了解个人对美国COVID-19疫苗接种的看法。我们的主要研究目标是确定1644名调查参与者对疫苗接种态度的社会人口学特征和原因。我们提供明确证据显示，与公众普遍看法相反，使用社交媒体的年轻受众大多对COVID-19疫苗接种持积极态度（81. 5%）。这些年轻人希望保护他们的家人和亲戚（96.7%）;他们认为接种疫苗是一种公民责任行为（91.9%），并对他们的医疗保健提供者表示强烈的信心（87.7%）。另一个关键因素是年轻人群对个人COVID-19感染的恐惧（88.2%）;此外，参与者的子女人数越多，他们接种COVID-19疫苗的意愿就越大。这些结果使一个实用的公共信息传递途径，以加强针对年轻人口的疫苗接种运动。
Political and public health leaders promoting COVID-19 vaccination should identify the most relevant criteria driving the vaccination decision. Social media is increasingly used as a source of vaccination data and as a powerful communication tool to increase vaccination. In December 2020, we performed a cross-sectional social media-based survey addressing personal sentiments toward COVID-19 vaccination in the USA. Our primary research objective is to identify socio-demographic characteristics and the reasons for the 1644 survey participants’ attitudes regarding vaccination. We present clear evidence that, contrary to the prevailing public perceptions, young audiences using social media have mostly a positive attitude towards COVID-19 vaccination (81.5%). These younger individuals want to protect their families and their relatives (96.7%); they see vaccination as an act of civic responsibility (91.9%) and express strong confidence in their healthcare providers (87.7%). Another critical factor is the younger population’s fear of personal COVID-19 infection (88.2%); moreover, the greater the number of children the participants have, the greater is their intent to get the COVID-19 vaccine. These results enable a practical public-messaging pathway to reinforce vaccination campaigns addressing the younger population.
